This article would be better titled "Criticism of the OSB" as it stands right now. The second quoted criticism is also from a review of the original OSB, which differs significantly from the current version. I think these articles should be linked in a section of links to reviews critical of the OSB, and this section should be significantly condensed to a one paragraph summary.

Creating a list of translation errors

I would like to suggest that we create a list of translation errors in the OSB, not to slam the project, but to compile a list of things needing correction in a subsequent edition. I would limit it to substantive errors, in which the text is either clearly wrong, omits something that it should, or includes something that it should not... and I would suggest dividing it into those three categories. What do ya'll think? By the way, the edition I just got in the mail fixed all but one of the orginal errata of the first batch. Frjohnwhiteford 23:53, June 12, 2008 (UTC)

Dead links

The lxx.org domain seems to have a Chinese owner now. I don't know what should be done with the links to the project, though -- just delete them? --RdrSymeon 23:19, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

The criticism section is out of balance

This article would be better titled "Criticism of the OSB" as it stands right now. The second quoted criticism is also from a review of the original OSB, which differs significantly from the current version. I think these articles should be linked in a section of links to reviews critical of the OSB, and this section should be significantly condensed to a one paragraph summary.
